The following database has been made available by the Law Enforcement Support Office of the Defense Logistics Agency and shows armaments and equipment obtained by local law enforcement officials from the U.S. Military and Department of Homeland Security.
Simply choose your State and your County and you'll have complete access to see how well militarized your local and county police departments are.

According to this, Crook County got 4 of "RIFLE,7.62 MILLIMETER" and 3 of "RIFLE,5.56 MILLIMETER".
Two or three average households probably have that.

Yeah, but I'll bet they paid more than that for them. :)

I wasn't seeing any armored vehicles for Natrona.

Checking Montana,
My county, Gallitian has several .45 autos along with .556 and 7.62 rifles, Why can't I get them for that price?
Most other counties around Montana that I checked did have some firearms.
Flathead county has a mine resitant vehicle.
The real pull up to the pig trough is Lewis and Clark county seven pages of stuff from bedsprings, nightstands, vacum cleaner.
Five pages of 7.62 rifles, I did not count how many on a page, what are they doing preparing for war?

I was looking around Oregon counties. Most got a few rifles, not a big deal. Josephine County got a bunch of night vision devices, I guess the cops down there like to do some varmint hunting, or maybe deer poaching. Then I got to Lane County, which is where Eugene and the University of Oregon is, land of aging hippies. Eight pages of stuff. I guess you need a lot of military Rambos to control all those flower children... ::)
